Lucas: Yeah, you're right. I didn't really have time for that, you know? Give me
a break. It's not every day a man finds out he's gonna be a father again. Plus,
I wanted to do something special for Carrie.

Carrie: I hope you didn't go to too much trouble.

Lucas: I did, actually, but it's all right. You're worth it. You deserve it. So
with that said [Clears throat] Let there be light.

Carrie: Oh!

Lucas: Not bad, huh?

Carrie: Oh! It's beautiful, Lucas.

Sami: Yeah, Lucas, it really is beautiful. You never did anything for me like
that.

Bo: We've decided not to tell Hope about the change in the trial date.

Frankie: Bo, I know it's your decision, and I promised myself I wouldn't say
anything...but you're making a huge mistake.

Caroline: Oh, hello, Frankie.

Frankie: Hey, Mom.

Caroline: What's the matter? Is it Jennifer?

Frankie: No. Bo.

Caroline: Bo?

Frankie: I usually love my job. I like helping people. But right now...defending
my client to the best of my abilities means...hurting someone I care about.

Caroline: You mean because you're the defense attorney for Chelsea?

Frankie: And because I'm her attorney, I-I am legally bound to sit back and
watch my brother make the biggest mistake of his life.

Bo: Oh, Fancy Face... I hate keeping things from you. I hate everything about
this. I'd do anything to make things different. [Footsteps] Hope! Hope, are
you --

Marlena: No, John! No, no, no! Don't you dare hurt my husband! Stop.

John: He's not your husband. But if you don't listen to me, he's gonna be your
killer.

Marlena: John!

Patrick: John.

John: Now, whose side are you on -- the good guys or Alex?

Marlena: He is not a bad guy. He's my husband. You're the one behaving like a
monster.

Alex: Marlena... [Exhales sharply] Marlena, would you help me out of here,
please?

Marlena: Excuse us. Come on. Come on.

Alex: Thanks, sweetheart.

Patrick: I'm warning you, John. Stay away from Alex.

Like sands through the hourglass, so are the Days of our Lives.

Caroline: What kind of mistake is Bo gonna make?

Frankie: [Sighs] Look, since this is directly related to my defense of
Chelsea, I'm -- I'm not at liberty to say. Mom, I'm sorry, but what I can tell
you is there's a lot of information that I would like to disclose. It would make
a huge difference.

Caroline: Oh.

Frankie: I've considered quitting, but I'd still be legally bound, so...

Caroline: Oh! Oh, this has got to be so sticky for you. Lord, you work for
Mickey, and you're defending Chelsea in a manslaughter case, and Mickey is
representing Hope in the divorce.

Frankie: But they're two separate issues.

Caroline: They are related. Hope is furious with Bo for not telling the truth
about Chelsea being the driver that killed Zack, and that's why she's filing for
divorce. She's gonna testify against Chelsea, isn't she?

Frankie: She's planning to.

Caroline: Well, see? What I mean is a judge and jury listening to the testimony
of a grieving mother's gonna make your job a lot harder, isn't it?

Frankie: Exactly.

Caroline: Mm-hmm.

Frankie: I never thought I'd say this, but I hate my job. I just want to do the
right thing, and right now, legally and morally, those are two -- two different
things.

Caroline: Frankie, there are always dark moments, you know, in the work we
choose. Every day is not a ray of sunshine. Come on. You love your work, don't
you?

Frankie: Yes. It's complicated. I mean, I've defended murderers that I knew were
guilty, but it was my job, and I believed they deserved the best defense I could
give them, but it's never been this personal for me before -- never.

Caroline: [Sighs]

Frankie: I see people I care about getting hurt, and I'm the one hurting them.

Caroline: No, Frankie. Don't be hard on yourself. Bottom line -- you got to do
what's best for your client.

Frankie: Even if it destroys Bo and Hope's chances of getting back together?

Bo: I saw Hope's purse. I thought she'd come home.

Jennifer: That was my purse.

Bo: What are you doing here?

Jennifer: I left you a message that I was gonna come. Didn't Hope tell you?

Bo: Tell me what?

Jennifer: Bo, she wanted me to clean out Zack's room. She wants to donate
everything to the Horton Foundation.

Bo: I don't give a damn what she said. My soon-to-be ex-wife seems to forget
that she's not the only one grieving. Zack's my son, too.

Lucas: Now, for obvious reasons, alcohol will not be served tonight.

Sami: Oh.

Austin: Fine with me.

Lucas: But I will be pouring a beautiful, full-bodied, finely aged sparkling
water -- Salem's finest.

Carrie: Oh. [Chuckles]

Lucas: Pardon me. Oh, thank you.

Carrie: Yes.

Lucas: Now I'll propose a little toast. To Carrie. When I met you years ago --
many years ago -- I-I fell in love with you. Even though we haven't gotten
together till now....part of my heart has always been with you. I've always been
honored to call you a friend. And now to be able to stand here -- words can't
describe how I feel to have our friendship turn into love. I am honored to bring
a baby into this world with you. So to my wife-to-be and my beautiful
baby-to-be.

Sami: Congratulations.

Austin: I wish you both the best.

Lucas: Thank you.

Carrie: Thank you, Austin and Sami.

[Slow music plays]

Lucas: Would you, uh, like to dance?

Carrie: You sure?

Lucas: Yeah.

Carrie: That was beautiful, Lucas. Thanks.

Austin: Sami, shall we?

Sami: [Chuckles] Okay. [Laughs]

Carrie: Oh, I hate to admit it, but I'm -- I'm getting used to you constantly
spoiling me.

Lucas: If you think I'm spoiling you now, wait till I have a chance to spoil you
and a beautiful child.

Sami: Are you okay?

Austin: Oh, yeah. Yeah. Why wouldn't I be?

Sami: Come on. It's certainly a shock to find out that Carrie and Lucas are
gonna have a baby.

Austin: Yeah. It is. And I would be lying if I said I wasn't jealous.

And I'm mesmerized I found...

Marlena: Alex, I'm so sorry that John attacked you again.

Alex: And I'm so sorry that he followed us here.

Marlena: You know what? We won't let him spoil the honeymoon. We'll just go to
some other island.

Alex: It's a very sweet idea, but you know very well it won't do any good. He's
ISA. He'd find us. Besides, I'm not about to leave here just because John Black
keeps following us around. No. I think it's time I took a stand and showed him
exactly who Alex North is.

Patrick: Let's go, John. I don't think you're wanted here.

John: If you don't want to lose your hand, you will get it off of me.

Patrick: I'm not trying to hurt you, John. I'm trying to warn you. The only
reason the casino bosses haven't dragged your ass out of here by now is because
I waived them off. See, this island isn't the place you walk around publicly
announcing you're going to kill someone. The authorities here don't care who you
are, how much money you have, where you're from, or who you work for. They will
lock you up for a long, long time.

John: Why should I listen to you? For all I know, you're working with him.

Patrick: What are you talking about -- working for him? He and Marlena just got
in. They were shocked to see us, as we were to see them.

John: Maybe Hope and Marlena were shocked, but you two -- I don't buy it for a
second it's a coincidence that you're here together. He recruited you to help
him, didn't he?

Patrick: And help him do what, exactly? I am done with you. I am ready to have
security pull you out of here, kicking and screaming.

Hope: John, don't do this, all right? Patrick knows more about this island than
anyone, and he's one of the good guys.

John: What you don't know is the Salem P.D. has issued a "be on the lookout" for
Lockhart. He is wanted for murder and extortion.

Hope: He is innocent.

John: You know that for a fact? Perhaps I should just call Bo and tell him where
you are right now.

Hope: No, you will not do that. I won't let you.

Caroline: Frankie. Frankie. You've got such a good heart. Don't upset yourself
this way. I don't know if you could help Bo and Hope, even if you were able to
intercede, you know? I tried to help, and, let me tell you, Hope let me know in
no uncertain terms, "don't meddle." So I think the best we can do is not
interfere and let Hope and Bo work out their own problems on their own. Well, I
got to get back to decorating.

Dr. Butler: It's a miracle this guy's still alive. EMS brought him in. I didn't
think he'd make it through the night, especially considering this diagnosis he's
been living with all these months.

Nurse: I wonder why he's been living in a hotel. He's obviously a fighter if
he's made it this long. It sure seems like he's got something to fight for. Look
what he's holding.

Dr. Butler: She's beautiful. Well, if I was this guy, I'd fight for her, too.

Jennifer: I'm sorry. I know how much you're grieving over Zack. Hope asked me to
do this.

Bo: No, don't apologize. I... I-I'm sorry. I don't mean to take my frustration
out on you. It's just that, uh, I haven't been in Zack's room. Seeing this stuff
-- it, uh... it just kind of reminds me of what I've lost. It's -- and the life
I'll never have back... especially now that Hope has moved on with Lockhart. You
knew she was with that bastard, didn't you?

Lucas: Good. Listen, I know we talked about starting a family, but things are
happening so fast. It's just kind of a surprise.

Carrie: Yeah, although I don't know why it should be. I didn't do anything to
avoid getting pregnant. I just thought that it would take a little longer with
my age and everything.

Lucas: Yeah, well, I'm sorry that we had to change the wedding plans.

Carrie: It doesn't matter. It's about the marriage, not the wedding. Marriage
and family -- that's all I ever wanted, you know?

Lucas: Except you wanted to marry Austin.

Carrie: I gave up that dream a long time ago, Lucas, when I got divorced, you
know? And when I came back to Salem, yeah, for a little bit I thought that maybe
things would work out for the two of us, but it's not meant to be. You're so
good to me -- better than I deserve.

Lucas: Yeah? Why would you say that?

Carrie: I just haven't handled the situation very well. I should have made up my
mind a long time ago.

Lucas: That's okay. I understand why it was a tough time for you. You and Austin
-- you guys have a lot of history together.

Carrie: Good and bad. I just -- I want to make sure that you know I'm happy the
way things turned out, and I know how lucky I am. You are a great father to
will, and you're gonna be a wonderful husband to me. And I'm so thrilled to be
having a baby with you.

Lucas: Thank you. Ditto.

Carrie: [Chuckles] [Cellphone chiming]

Lucas: Whoa, that's me. I changed my ring tone just for you.

Carrie: Oh! Like I said, I'm getting used to you spoiling me.

Lucas: That's nothing. You just wait. This is just the beginning. Hello? Oh,
yeah, yeah. I was hoping it was you. Yeah, I'll be right down. Great. Thank you.
All right. The food's here. I'll be right back. Food's here, all right?!

Austin: You need any help?

Lucas: No. No, I'm fine. You guys stay. Enjoy yourselves. [Smooches]

Sami: Well, I can understand why you'd be jealous.

Austin: Well, it's got nothing to do with Lucas and Carrie's relationship.

Sami: Come on.

Austin: All right. Yeah. Maybe a little, you know? But all I'm jealous about is
the kid part. I've been lucky enough to travel around the world. I've had
amazing jobs with amazing perks, and I've had a wonderful life -- a wonderful
dull life. But something's always been missing. The reason why I decided to stay
in Salem was because I realized this is where I wanted to start a business, I
want to settle down, I want to raise a family. You know how much that's always
meant to me.

Sami: Yeah, I do, and it hasn't been easy. You married Carrie, and she left you.
You thought Will was your child, and I --

Austin: Donít. Donít. Donít. The reason why I was so willing to believe that
Will was my son is because I just wanted it so badly.

Sami: And even after everything I put you through, you still have hope, you
still want to do it again.

Austin: The only thing I ever wanted to be was the father that I never had. I
want my kids to grow up in a family with two parents, for them to know that they
are always loved.

Sami: I know how you feel. Believe me.

Austin: Things may be -- they didn't work out between me and Carrie, but I got a
second chance to make it right this time, and I can't wait to do everything
from, you know, change diapers and teach my kid to ride a bike and coach t-ball
-- corny stuff.

Sami: That's not corny. It's great. I guess all you're missing is the right
woman to share your life with.

Carrie: May I cut in?

Sami: Of course.

Hope: Patrick, could I please have a moment alone with John?

Patrick: I donít want --

Hope: Patrick, please.

Patrick: All right. But remember, John, I'm watching you.

John: Stay away from him, Hope. He's dangerous.

Hope: I am not interested in what you or Bo have to say about Patrick. The point
is, I know him. In fact, the two of us have gotten rather close.

John: [Groans] Hope, come on. Don't tell me the two of you are together.

Hope: Patrick has helped me through a very difficult time in my life, and he has
been nothing but a complete gentleman. Yeah, I know. A lot of men in Salem have
had issues with him, but he's always come through for me and for Jennifer. And
must I remind you? It was Patrick who saved us on Tony's island.

John: [Sighs] You know, Hope, you and I go way back. And normally I-I trust
your instincts. But there's something about Lockhart -- something I just donít
like.

Marlena: Hmm. Hmm. [Giggling] Oh. What -- what did you say this was called?

Alex: It's a Morgan Island Mai Tai. I understand you only need to drink one.

Marlena: [Giggling] Oh, goodness.

Alex: Listen, you go easy on that, okay? I'll be right back.

Marlena: Darling, are you okay?

Alex: Oh, yes, I'm fine. I'll be right back.

Patrick: You're right about John Black. The sooner we take care of him, the
better.

[Monitor beeping]

Nurse: The test results are in.

Dr. Butler: [Sighs] Hmm.

Nurse: Well?

Dr. Butler: My initial diagnosis was correct.

Nurse: So there's no cure?

Dr. Butler: Not yet. There have been no controlled studies because it's such a
rare disorder, but I did read a journal article last week. There's a new
protocol. It may be able to help.

Nurse: I guess he's very lucky he happened to find himself in this hospital.

Dr. Butler: Well, I donít know about that, but if there's a chance to give this
man his life back, I'd sure as hell would like to try.

Frankie: I donít believe it, Pop. Throwing Victor a party was your idea?

Shawn: You bet it was.

Frankie: Why?

Shawn: Oh. Because, see, if it weren't for Victor, my lovely wife -- your mom --
she might not be here today. So, can you join us for the party, Frankie?

Frankie: Pop, I'd love to, but I have plans with Jennifer.

Jennifer: Hello, everyone.

Caroline: Oh, hi.

Jennifer: Look at this place. What's with all the balloons and streamers?

Shawn: Well, it's a birthday party for Victor Kiriakis.

Jennifer: Oh. Okay. Hi.

Frankie: Hi. Okay, so, are you ready?

Jennifer: Yeah, I'm ready whenever you are.

Caroline: I'm so glad to see you two spending time together.

Shawn: Yeah. If you can stick around for the party for a few minutes, that'd be
nice, huh?

Caroline: We have to keep on decorating and get the banner and the balloons.

Shawn: Oh, we better do that.

Frankie: Yeah.

Shawn: Okay.

Frankie: All right. Are you okay?

Jennifer: Yeah. I just wanted to talk to you about something really important.

Frankie: Okay.

Jennifer: It's about our future.

Hope: Hey!

Bo: Hey! Where you been?

Hope: I stopped by the mall to pick up pictures of Zack, and then I stopped by
to see your parents.

Bo: Oh, yeah? I was gonna stop by there after my shift. How was their trip to
Ireland?

Hope: They had an incredible time. You should see the pictures they took.. I
have to show you something. Wait till you see -- close your eyes. I want to
surprise you.

Hope: I love your folks. Besides, I thought they might want to see the pictures
of Zack.

Bo: Mm-hmm.

Hope: What?

Bo: Well, nothing. Just I'm the luckiest guy in the world, and I love you very
much -- you and your leprechaun.

Hope: Me and my leprechaun. I married a leprechaun.

Bo: Oh, come, my darling.

Austin: I'm surprised you cut in. I'm actually surprised that you wanted to
celebrate with us at all. I wouldn't blame you if you avoided me for the rest of
your life.

Carrie: Austin, I told you I-I want us to be friends -- hopefully forever.

Austin: Hey, you know, I'm sorry for pressuring you all that time.

Carrie: I wanted to tell you that I'm sorry, too, if I led you on.

Austin: Yeah. I'm just glad you're happy. I know how badly you want to have kids
-- just as much as I did.

Lexie: Carrie, from a medical point of view, Austin is the last man you should
conceive a child with. I'm so sorry.

Carrie: I know how much you want to have kids, too, and you were a great father
to will. And finding out that Lucas was really his father -- I remember how much
that hurt you.

Austin: Yeah. Yeah, it feels like it's happening all over again.

Carrie: I know. I'm sorry. Just please know that I want you to be happy, and I
know that you will be -- maybe sooner than you think.

Lucas: Here we go. Food's here.

Sami: Here. Here. Let me help you.

Lucas: Thank you.

Sami: Um, look, uh, Lucas, I just want you to know...I'm really happy for you
and Carrie -- your baby. I really mean that. Um, it's weird, isn't it? If things
had been different, it would have been you and me having a baby right now -- if
Kate hadn't done what she did to us.

Lucas: Why are you telling me this now? I mean, what are you saying?

Sami: Nothing. Nothing. I just -- I can't wait to have a kid again myself.

Lucas: Well, good. You know, you're a wonderful mother, and I'm glad that you
and will are working your problems out -- that he's gonna spend part time with
you.

Austin: Before we start, I'd like to talk to Sami about something in private.

Hope: John, believe me, I understand why you're suspicious of Patrick. But I've
been on this island for a while with him, and I've learned more and more about
him. Yes, he's a pretty private person, but, I'm telling you, he has a good
heart.

John: Well, Hope, I'd like to believe you, but the jury's out on Lockhart. But I
do know that Bo would be going ballistic if he knew that you were with him.

Hope: He already knows.

John: Oh, he does?

Hope: Yeah. He called, and Patrick answered the phone.

John: Well, that's strange. You see, I've been spending a lot of time with Bo,
and he never said a word about it. In fact, all he's been doing is trying to
track down Patrick Lockhart.

Hope: He's a hypocrite. He has absolutely no reason to try to build a case
against Patrick just because I'm with him, especially since I know for a fact
that he is back together with Billie.

John: I donít know what you're talking about. I've been spending time with Bo.
He never mentioned anything about seeing Billie. I donít know why he would. He's
been trying to get ahold of you for a reconciliation.

Hope: Well, that's funny because he told me he wanted a divorce.

John: Oh, come on, Hope. After what the two of you had --

Hope: "Had"? "Had." That's the key word. After Zack's death... Bo made a choice
to stand by Billie and Chelsea, not by me. So any hope I had of ever getting
back together with Bo -- it's gone.

John: I'm sorry.

Hope: Don't be. Look, all I ask is that you leave Patrick alone. What you need
to do right now is figure out a way to get Marlena away from Alex and take her
home with you.

John: I intend to do just that... but I may need your help.

Alex: My plan worked. Now that John has attacked me in public, when I'm ready to
kill him, it'll look like self-defense.

Patrick: Why are you going through all this trouble? Why Donít you take Marlena
and take off in the middle of the night?

Alex: Because that would only be a temporary fix. He'd eventually find me, and I
wouldn't be able to have a life with Marlena.

Patrick: What if Marlena does get her memory back? Are you afraid she might want
to go back to John if he were still alive?

Alex: Of course not.

Patrick: 'Cause Hope says that John and Marlena were incredibly happily married.

Alex: Hope has no idea how happily married Marlena and I were.

Patrick: Neither does Marlena.

Alex: Are you forgetting who you're working for?

Patrick: Of course not. I just want to understand your plan so I can carry it
out to the best of my abilities. I do have to admit I'm a little confused,
though. First, Marlena doesn't remember her life with you. Then she doesn't
remember her life after you. Hell, she can't remember a conversation she had
earlier today. Her condition seems to be getting worse, not better.

Alex: Hysterical amnesia is very unpredictable and difficult to treat.

Patrick: Obviously. But I thought hysterical amnesia was caused by some kind of
severe trauma. So something must have happened to Marlena all those years ago
when she was with you for that to happen... right? So I got to ask, what was it?

Sami: Austin, what's wrong?

Austin: Nothing, nothing. I just wanted to ask you something.

Sami: Okay.

Austin: You know I was talking about kids, about raising a family in Salem?

Sami: Yeah.

Austin: Well, before Carrie cut in --

Sami: I was telling you that I think the only thing you're missing is the right
woman to share your life with.

Austin: Right. Right. That's why I wanted to ask you something in private.

Sami: Oh, my God, Austin. Are you asking me to marry you?

Bo: I was the luckiest man in the world. How did this happen to my family?

Hope: Do you really think this is going to work?

John: It has to. I'll protect Marlena even if it means I have to die.

Alex: You're right, Patrick. I did cause Marlena's hysterical amnesia. I didn't
mean to hurt her, but she pushed me to do it.

Patrick: So it wasn't that she thought you died a tragic death? You abused her.
That's why she doesn't want to remember you.

Alex: All you need to know is I came to Salem a changed man. And now that I have
her back, I intend to get John Black out of our lives once and for all.

Patrick: So, where do I come in?

Alex: All right. Here's what you have to do.

Frankie: Sit down.

Jennifer: Okay.

Frankie: Okay. Our future -- what about it?

Jennifer: Uh, I'm not exactly happy with how our relationship is going.

Frankie: So, then, what do you want to do about it?

Jennifer: I think that we should take the next logical step. Frankie, you know
-- you know that Jack was the first man that I was ever with. And when we were
in high school -- when we were dating -- we waited. I Donít take making love to
someone very casually -- not at all.

Frankie: I know. Neither do I.

Jennifer: So I donít want to be just lovers. I want to be husband and wife.

Frankie: Wh -- come here.

Nurse: Dr. Butler, is this patient in any shape for an experimental procedure?

Dr. Butler: It's the only chance he's got. [Door opens, closes]

Jack: Jennifer.

Shawn D.: That's why we are gonna be at your trial every single day, and we are
going to send you to jail for as long as the law will allow.
